In-house cleaning or a specialist?
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.
Extract fan cleaning in Temple Park
Think of the fan as the system’s heart and the grease as a clot. A heart under strain works harder for less. Our job is to clear it, check it runs smoothly and record what we found, before signing it off. Typical jobs include a motor area thick with grease and weak extraction at the canopy, across discharge points, roof-mounted fans and axial fans.
In a smaller place like Temple Park, the kitchens with extract systems are more likely to be a pub, a café, a takeaway or a school or care home kitchen than a big restaurant. A kitchen that cooks fewer hours still builds up grease, so the interval is set by hours of use and grease readings.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
What extract fan cleaning can’t fix
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so these are the things it will not cover:
- A failed motor or worn bearings (that needs a fan repair or replacement)
- A cracked or broken impeller (it needs replacing)
- A faulty speed controller or isolator
If you are not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Where we work
- Centrifugal fans
- Axial fans
- Roof-mounted fans

What affects the cost of extract fan cleaning
We quote each job individually. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy every part is to reach
- Parking and loading at the site
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- How big the system is
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we survey first, from photos or on site, and why the quote is fixed before work begins.
What to send for a quote
We can often survey from pictures. The most useful are:
- A few general shots of the system
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
Here’s what helps us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, a few pictures and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Then phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.

What happens if it’s left?
The fan is part of the fire path. A TR19 clean that left out the fan wouldn’t cover the whole system and many insurers require the full system to be cleaned to TR19. In a smaller place like Temple Park, a site that has to close is felt quickly.
One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before work begins.
Why us?
- A written report with photos after every visit
- A BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease
- We are fully insured
- CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001

How it works
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so the site can open as normal afterwards. The visit itself takes an hour or two for one fan, longer when it’s hard to reach. In a smaller place like Temple Park, parking is rarely the issue, but tell us about gates, roof access and opening hours.
- First we check the fan’s condition and how it sounds.
- With the fan isolated, the housing is opened.
- Each blade is cleaned so the impeller runs evenly.
- We clean the casing, the outlet and around the motor.
- The fan goes back into service with a report on its condition.
Before we arrive
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
Ask for a quote
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
Advice
Questions from Temple Park
Can the work in Temple Park be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. It means the site in Temple Park keeps running as normal. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
Do you cover smaller places like Temple Park?
Yes. Temple Park is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
What information do you need?
The site address, the type of premises and your opening hours, along with a few pictures and any previous report.
Why has my extract fan got louder?
Uneven grease on the impeller often causes it. After cleaning, we’ll tell you if wear or damage is also involved.
Are you insured?
Yes, we’re fully insured. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor, for sites that check contractor safety.

Do we need to close while you work?
Not normally. Visits are timed for when the area is closed, such as overnight or at a weekend, so you keep your normal hours.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and we will quote them together.
What extract fan cleaning looks like in Temple Park
Look up Temple Park on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 66 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 18 sandwich bars and takeaways in and around Temple Park, up to about a mile and a half out. Grease builds up on fan blades and housings in kitchens like these, unbalancing the impeller. Fire safety in Temple Park falls to Royal Berkshire Fire and Rescue Service. The Fire Safety Order puts the duty on whoever runs a kitchen to control its fire risk, and a greasy duct is fuel. Environmental health officers from Bracknell Forest council inspect food businesses in Temple Park. An officer looking round a kitchen will see the canopy, and grease there is hard to miss. Before-and-after pictures from each clean are a simple way to show the extract is in hand.
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Pinewood Hospital about 2.9 miles south, the extract may need cleaning more often than a part-time kitchen. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Meadow Vale Primary School or anywhere near Temple Park, the holidays are the usual time for a TR19® clean. A hall kitchen that only cooks for events, whether near St Andrew or elsewhere in Temple Park, still needs its extract cleaned, just less often.

Keeping the system healthy
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Keep the grease filters clean and in place
- Leave a clear route to the fan
- Notice when the fan starts to sound different
- Report grease escaping from the fan
You get before and after pictures of the impeller and housing. It notes what was done and anything that couldn’t be reached, along with the recommended next clean date.
Keep the whole system on its cleaning cycle. Regular full cleans keep the fan from building up heavy deposits, in line with BESA guidance.
